Pourquoi c’est important
Jobs drive income and spending, and a tight labour market pushes wages and inflation up. the Riksbank watches employment closely, so strong figures support the Swedish krona and weak ones raise the odds of rate cuts. Full-time jobs carry more weight than part-time.
Mode de calcul
Most countries count employment from a household labour force survey; job openings come from employer surveys or job-board data; announced job cuts are tallied from company statements.
Ce que signifient les variations
- Compare with the consensus and with population growth.
- Openings falling while employment holds up is the "soft landing" pattern central banks hope for.
- Quits rising means workers are confident they can find better-paid jobs: wage pressure ahead.
Supérieur aux attentes : A stronger figure than expected points to a healthier economy: it usually supports the Swedish krona and local stocks, and can push bond yields up.
Inférieur aux attentes : A weaker figure than expected points to slowing activity: the Swedish krona tends to soften and markets price in lower rates.
Un bref historique
Labour force surveys spread after the Second World War, following the US Current Population Survey (1940s); the US job openings survey (JOLTS) began in 2000.
The Riksbank is the world's oldest central bank, founded in 1668.
